x=15/14;

First, distribute to parenthesis

12x-20+2x+6=1

Next, combine like terms

14x-14=1

Now solve for x

14x-14(+14)=1(+14)

14x(/14)=15(/14)

x=15/14

The diagram shows a regular octagon joined to an equilateral triangle work out the value of X

fgiga [73]

Answer:

$x=165^o$

Step-by-step explanation:

we know that

The measure of the interior angle in an equilateral triangle is equal to 60 degrees

The measure of the interior angle in a regular octagon is equal to

$\frac{(n-2)180}{n}$

where

n is the number of sides

In this problem we have

$n=8\ sides$

substitute

$\frac{(8-2)180}{8}$

$\frac{(6)180}{8}=135^o$

we have that, based in the diagram

The sum of the interior angle of the equilateral triangle plus the interior angle of a regular octagon plus the value of x must be equal to 360 degrees (complete circle)

$x+60^o+135^o=360^o$

solve for x

$x+195^o=360^o$

$x=360^o-195^o$

$x=165^o$

The goal of a Toy Drive is to donate more than 1000 toys. The Toy Drive already has collected 300

maksim [4K]

Answer:

t > 700

Step-by-step explanation:

1000 - 300 = 700

This means they still need at least 700 toys to go.

In the question it says "donate more" so we are going to use the ">" symbol.

Let "t" equal the number of toys they need to donate.

t > 700

Best of Luck!
